How is it going? I hope you had a great Mother's Day Mom! This week we were really looking for new investigators because we lost half our area to the sisters. We were walking on a road we had walked on a thousand times and we stopped and had an impression to knock on a small house in an alley. We knocked on it and it was the house of some Brazilian students, they were super cool and let us in. They liked the message and said they would read the BoM if we brought one so we brought 2 and the next day they were fighting over who got to read it first so we dropped another one off! They are super cool and hopefully they will come to church this week!
In other news, we marked a baptismal date for Keily this Saturday and she is super excited. She is a little nervous and doesn't want too many people there but we are inviting the whole ward so she can just deal with it haha. Her birthday was this week so we stopped by her party and had a ton of food and awesome cake. They had alcohol but she was not drinking. They played Just Dance and went crazy. Brazilians are crazy especially when they are drunk but it was funny. They sang happy birthday to her and brought out champagne and she said, "I am not drinking" which was way cool!
As you know, on Sunday we got to Skype and it was really good seeing you guys! It was awesome that we had the Grovers and the Armstrongs in on the Skype call and we will have to do that for Christmas as well! After that, we had a pancake dinner with the Silva family which is always a blast but the sisters came so it wasn't as fun haha. Just kidding, I like sisters...I just love being a district leader over a district of only sisters...
Well that is all for this week, I love you guys and it was awesome seeing you. Christmas will come super fast and we will be Skyping again and we will wonder where the time went!
Love,
Elder Ruggles
